Hi,
Well it's certainly very interesting. I wonder how it can be gamed,
and what the consequences that would be for Wikipedia? I also note
that deletions don't seem to be covered anywhere. An author who
deletes text could be making a valuable contribution...

Have a look at Ray King's essay:

Although this solution is aimed more generally at sites using Wikimedia
software, this is something I believe Ray has been talking with Jimbo
about. I happened to be present when Ray presented this the other night,
& a known expert suggested an excellent way to grab some of the data
needed without causing a strain on the servers.
And Ray is *very* interested in feedback. I hope he concentrates on a
simplified version of this proposal, rather than trying to write the
finished, with all of the bells-&-whistles version.
